You've seen them - glassy eyes in sunken eye sockets, pale skin hanging off their bones. If you haven't already guessed, I'm talking about junkies. They messed up at some point in their lives by"experimenting" and got addicted. Now they want you to try some, too. See how it helped us? See how much better we are now? Come one, one hit won't hurt.

You never fully understand what drugs do to you unless you experience itfirsthand. But that doesn't mean to go out and try some stuff just to get experienced. I have many friends who are addicted to various things. Unfortunately, I was too dumb to let that tell me not to try...
